Straddle Tuck form check

So I just moved up to the straddle tuck this week and it feels really awkward.  I believe it is mainly related to my mobility as far a as a straddle position itself is concerned.  I try to concentrate on keeping my legs straight during the move, but can definitely feel my knees bend as I hit the top of the movement.  Any tips on improvement would be appreciated.

Thanks

Jeff

Hi @Jeff Donahue,

Keep working on it. Keep the contraction throughout the exercise. Never relax at any point. Keep knees locked and lengthen your legs when you go up and also try to pause a bit on top of each rep.
